TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Glentanna.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Glentanna is a locality in Range 5 Coast Land District, British Columbia, Canada. It is classified as a town. Glentanna is located at 54.8667°N, 127.1333°W.
Glentanna rests in the quiet embrace of the Range 5 Coast Land District, where the land rises to meet the rugged silhouette of the Hudson Bay Range. It lies 10.1 km north-north-east of Smithers, BC (from Smithers, BC: bearing 16°T), and is situated 7.7 km north-east of Lake Kathlyn. The Bulkley River carves its path through the valley, drawing a silver line across the terrain that defines the stillness of the morning air. Glentanna sits within sight of these heights, where the light at dusk catches the sharp edges of the Hudson Bay Glacier, turning the distant ice into a pale, glowing violet. Nearby, the presence of Kathlyn Lake and the sheltered depths of Driftwood Canyon Park offer a stillness that settles deep into the bones, a cold clarity that persists even as the seasons turn. Settlement in Glentanna grew from the hard work of those who cleared the timber and broke the earth to find a living in the shadow of the mountains. The local economy relies on the pulse of the land, with agriculture and forestry guiding the daily labor of those who keep the homesteads running. Life in Glentanna follows the cycles of the river and the shifting shadows of the Hudson Bay Range, maintaining a connection to the geography that is both practical and profound. The air here holds the scent of damp earth and pine, a stark, clean presence that lingers long after the sun has slipped behind the peaks.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
